Lazada, the most popular online shopping site in the Philippines is having their biggest sale of the year. The Lazada Online Revolution Sale is happening this November 11 and December 12 (11.11 and 12.12).
If you don’t know yet, this is a highly anticipated event for online shoppers and is famous for offering P11 peso deals on top of huge discounts on gadgets, home & living, kids, and even grocery products. This is the fifth online revolution of Lazada since its launch in 2012. With only a few days to go, here are some tips to get the most value for your online shopping budget.
Lazada Online Revolution Shopping Tips
Lazada recently held a roadshow where I was able to see a preview of the sale
1. Browse early – the deals extend to over 17 product categories including fashion, health & beauty, home & living, and electronics. It is helpful to start browsing now and window shop ahead of the actual sale. This gives you time to enjoy looking at products without a sense of panic that it’ll run out immediately – and they will come November 11!
P11 peso deals will include products like the Virtual Reality Box, LED light bulb rotating lamp and a Genius gaming mouse among many others. If this is your first time, note that there are FLASH SALES and will be available to buy for a limited-time i.e. 60 minutes.
Flash sale items include 32″ Slim LED TV for just P5,499, Fujidenzo 20L microwave oven for P1,999, Star Mobile smart phone for P999, HP desk jet printer for P888, and L’oreal lip and cheek pallete for P399.
2. Put items on your cart or use the heart button to mark items you like – don’t forget to put items that you like on your cart or use the heart button to mark them. This will allow you to access your wishlist from your Lazada account and save you time in looking for them.
I did this last year and in my experience, the prices automatically update to their discounted 11.11 sale price.
Here’s a screenshot of all the items I’ve marked so far, baka magustuhan niyo din! 🙂
3. Read reviews now – especially during flash sales, it won’t help if you are still not 100% sure of buying a certain brand of TV or gadget. You will run out of time! Better read reviews now before the sale. Aside from reviews and ratings found on Lazada itself, I also look for YouTube reviews to see how the product works.
Don’t forget to give back and do your share of reviewing, post your review on Lazada after shopping too!
4. Shop wisely and choose useful items that you need – I personally try to stick to the home & living category during the online revolution sale. This helps me stick to my budget and only buy products that is beneficial for my family. Last year, I was very happy with all the items I purchased for below P2,000.

5. Use the Lazada app – I have the Lazada app on my mobile phone and tablet so that I can browse products anywhere, especially when I am not doing anything or just waiting for someone or something. This will help you follow tip #1 and tip #2 easily during your spare time.
